Evgeny Lovchev has slammed Rafael Carioca, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Demy-de-Zeeuw-c10825 and Ari for not playing up to their level and has showered praise on Argentine defender, Nicolas Pareja
Famous football expert, Evgeny Lovchev, has shared his thoughts on foreigners at Spartak Moscow, criticising some of the team players for their questionable performances since the start of the Russian Premier League campaign this
season.
Spartak are sitting at the 7th spot on the league table despite starting the league campaign on a high this term.
The Spartachi are yet to record a win in the UEFA Champions League campaign, having lost their opening two group stage matches against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Barcelona-c39078 and Celtic FC respectively. The Red-whites, meanwhile, suffered a 2-0 defeat in
a league tie against CSKA Moscow recently.
And while some senior football pundits have blamed Unai Emery for the club’s inconsistent run and underachieving results in the league and the European tournament recently, Lovchev thinks otherwise.
Emery, who joined the Moscow-based club from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 earlier this summer, has been criticized for his team’s weak defence after the Russian outfit have conceded more goals than they have scored till date.
Lovchev revealed that the Myaso are desperately in need of reinforcements if they are to challenge for the league title this season. The 63-year-old revealed that the Spanish coach needs time before he can establish a squad he
can all his own.
“Spartak made big mistake to sign Rafael Carioca. The defender is yet to learn a lot in defence. His selection of pass is weak and the Brazilian has no passion and ambition.
“I do not remember when the last time Demy de Zeeuw played for his national team. He was not called probably because he does not deserve a place in the national team. Maybe that's the reason behind his average performances.”
“http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ari-c6471 is an average player, and Spartak need to buy someone else in his position. I think they should not build a game around the Brazilian striker.” The Soviet Top League winner was quoted as saying.
Lovchev went on to praise Nicolas Pareja, saying that the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 defender is the true leader of the team.
